Steel wheel restoration question...

[kjohnson2444]

I just took my original steel wheels to the body shop to have them restored. They are the early type that are painted silver on the inside and black on the outside. Am I wrong to have them painted all black?

It's called personalization. I don't have second thoughts about painting my gauges nor does anyone else have second thoughts about personalizing their cars for themselves. Just enjoy it! After all it is YOUR car!

Reading from Right to Left, the sticker states (approximately)

"Refer to the Owners Instruction Manual, The Z wears Steel Wheels with Radial Tires".

If I can get a hold of my friend, I will post a more accurate translation.

OK. The decision was all black. Just got the wheels back, new tires installed. Looks good.
